I'm chinese. This is an original Korean Song & Dance. China is nothing to do with THIS. In China there are so many korean-chinese(We call them, ChaoXianZu). Even though ChaoXianZu live in China, ChaoXianZu's mother country is KOREA and RESPECT this. Chinese people have to admit this REALLITY
I don't reeeall understand what all you guys are talking about but this song is KOREA's Arirang no disbute on my behalf. I know it is therefore it will always remain so to me. If you guys are talking about china catting Korea's dance style, in my opinion this dance hasn't got s*** on some of the traditional Korean dance's I've seen so they can cat till there hearts content. Korea still rules
This isn't korean at all. It's just china trying to prove that Korea, like Tibet, is a part of China. That's why we're seeing so many "korean" themes in Chinese dance.
no -_- it's Korea! this song is arirang but china's singer OK?? it's korean famous song just singer is chinese U search the "아리랑" you have wrong information.. you should heard ending part sing arirang is korean style. OK? ending part is (hiphop style + korea song) this song is 아리랑 this dance is korea dance
I KNOW that song is Arirang -- it's like the most famous Korean folk song of all time! What I mean is that China is using Korean theme dance and song and blend it with Chinese style modern fusion choreography. They do this to make it seem like Korean culture is actually a part of Chinese culture. This will make it easier some day for China to take over Korea after the North and South merge under the northern government and collapse as a nation.
What made you think the way they dance exactly is Chinese way of dancing?
I'm just wondered if there really is a specific boundary which represents a particular nationailty in modern dancing nowadays,except some traditional ones like "Jing Ju" in China.
And what do you mean by that?North and South will merge under the nothern government? that doesn't make any sense really.
Why all the accusations? Korea also refers to a people or tribe. Granted their main presence is in the Korean peninsula, but Korea is also one of the 56 minority ethnic tribes in China. Korea (the country) does not have sole monopoly or ownership to the Korean culture. This is an ETHNIC KOREAN dance.
Then neither would some of this so called "Chinese culture" here in Korea or any of its neightbors as well. There are Chinese peopel there too. There are also Chinese performing Chinese type stuff here too. America also share Chinese culture then? o.O Korea has never been part of China. Even Chinese nationalists admit the Koreans here are recent immigrations. So Koreans are there, many Chinese also in Korea. Chinese culture is part Korean too then.
this is actually mongolian dance.. it is not modern.. it is their traditonal dance.. learn to learn about other culture before u judge them.. its very ignorant of u..
As.. A mondern dancer.. for 3 years.. and still going.. I think its beautiful, and in mondern dance if you look it up,though.. Modern dance revolted against the classical ballet, then look at the video.. and tell me you do not see martha graham hands.. in 7:24. In class that the first thing they teach you when you take modern dance.. is to learn the hands. Martha Graham, Isodora Duncan, and Ruth St. Denis.. will be so.. proud.. that modern dance is still continueing.. in part our world.. bravo.!
Why are ppl so insistant that this is "stealing"? Korean culture extends beyond the China-Korea border. Those living on the Korean side of the border are classified as koreans, those living on the Chinese side of the border are chinese. It's not like the culture just stops at the border. Those of you who are angry koreans should be glad that your culture is influencing asian art form.
The video owner is right to call this korean, because this *is* a cultural piece derived from korean dance; and not simply because the melody is korean. The dance style itself is korean, even if the choreography has some modern elements. What language the song is sung in doesn't matter. It's a beautiful song, a great dance, and that's all that matters.
A translation is a way to better understand and appreciate the original. I believe this dance shows the originality of the people involved in this project. We can all benefit from "stealing" from one another. By the way, how much has Korea adopted from the US?
Some silly people fail to see that the piece is sung in Chinese for the Chinese audience. If it were sung in Korean no one would understand. And no, this is not "copying". Everyone knows this is a Korean tune - like Christmas songs that are sung in different languages.
Why Chinese Love Korean -,music ,drama ,Folk dance, food, fashion, people, looks, also HISTORY!!!!! Robber Chinese STOP faking History! Chinese learn from周恩來 understand?
its a chinese song with chinese dancers from a chinese high sch dance ,i dunno where they comes from , but the titles written like tat.. btw..@@ nice dance LOL~ love it ^^ energytic moves ! nice !!
The music played here is definetly Korean... the song is "Arirang", which is a traditional korean music. But in this case, it's sung in Chinese. and i don't know if the dancers are chinese or korean? but the video is great nonetheless!

"Arirang" is a traditional Korean song sung by our ancestors for thousands of years... What I don't understand is why is this song sung in Chinese in the first half?... I see all the dancers are Koreans though....
I literally couldn't speak, it's so beautiful and powerful. It's not contemporary even though that's a synonym for modern, however it's not really fully modern either. It's more lyrical, but it's beautiful none the less.
alot of them hyperextend their arms, and you can tell they don't hold from their centre. Although aspects of dance differ in culture, if I'm wrong I'm sorry. It's still quite pretty.
I really liked the first two sections of the piece. I thought the choreography was nice and it was a good use of shapes and space considering the large amount of people....The third section needed to go. It was far too random and did not fir tw/the rest of the concept of the piece. Overall, it was okay.
This is a Chinese modern dance. The first part of song is in Chinese about "seeking love across a sea of faces", and the second part of song is not in Chinese. Because there are 50 national minorities in China, Chinese music more often combines national minority cultures. Maybe the second part of song is related to Chinese Korean minority.
The song is the most popular traditional Korean folk song "Arirang", by the way, sung by a male singer in Chinese. I'm not sure if the dancers are from where.
oooh ok thats what i thought(korean song sung by chinese) but i wasnt sure. thanks for clearing that up. the dancers are most likely from china cuz i got it from a chinese dance dvd.
It is chinaese dance
